About this property

SERENITY HEIGHTS

Unwind in this peaceful haven and make the most of the spectacular views and fresh mountain air. This is the ideal base to explore the natural beauty of the Lake Tarawera region, or simply use as a base to attend a wedding at The Black Barn.

This newly renovated, stylish holiday home is the perfect retreat for up to 8 guests. Nestled high up a steepish driveway, it boasts breathtaking views over the serene Lake Tarawera, offering a tranquil escape for families or small groups.

Two well-appointed bedrooms in the main house and a charming sleepout (not attached to the main house) comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests in total.
Enjoy the thoughtfully designed interior featuring a fully equipped kitchen, cosy living areas, and contemporary furnishings to ensure relaxation and comfort.
Take in the picturesque surroundings from the expansive deck, perfect for al fresco dining or simply soaking up the beauty of nature. The birdsong is to behold!

The property has parking space for up to two cars. Please note that trailers and boats are not permitted to drive up due to the narrow and steep access road combined with limited parking once at the house. Leave these at Stoney Point or Boatshed Bay and talk to our local security man. We have very few if any issues with this.

Whilst there is no WiFi at the property there is good reception for cellphones out on the deck

Amazing view
The view is amazing. Unfortunately the coffee machine didn't work and there was left cutlery in the dishwasher with fungi on it. The furniture for the patio is very old and not very welcoming. Our stay was OK.

Tranquil retreat
We had a delightful stay at this lakehouse in Lake Tarawera. The property boasts a stunning lake view, and the house itself is thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The sleepout with bunkbeds is best suited to teenagers rather than smaller children, but overall, this is a fantastic spot for a relaxing getaway.
